Recently I needed to create a mock API for local development on a project and I decided to use Saturn, which describes itself thusly: A modern web framework that focuses on developer productivity, performance, and maintainability Saturn is written in F#, and given this whole project is F# it seemed like a logical fit. There’s a getting started guide, so I won’t go over that, instead I’ll focus on something I needed specifically for this projet, Basic Authentication, because the API I was mocking uses that under the hood and I wanted to simulate that.
